* note: I confused the two mod sections above in the last comment. R7 resistor location is the Range mod area.
* And you just need to wire the middle and outside lug. You can pick whatever outside lug you want, lugs 1 or 3.
As far as schematic information is concerned, potentiometer lugs, when looking at the bottom, aka with the shaft pointing away from you, reads from left to right 3, 2, 1. Now, you can pick whatever outside lug you want, lugs 1 or 3. This will change the resistance when you turn the knob from "0" to "10k" or "10k" to "0". Like a tone knob going from bass to treble or treble to bass. Like a gain knob going from clean to distortion or from distortion to clean. Its going to achieve the goal either way. Its a personal preference which outer lug you pick.
1. Make an account here:
tracing pedals since 2007
www.freestompboxes.org
(An absolute wealth of information)
2. Download this schematic which shows mod locations:
3. Open the Muzzle guide document for R7, R10, and C6 and other references:
*Range Mod directions:
Looking at the Muzzle Pcb board you will see "3" electrolytic capacitors on the right side of the chips (that, 1054, tl072). The first resistor location
"R7" above the
"C6", this is the "Range Mod" section where you wire the
b10k potentiometer. You will find out where R6 and C7 is from the Muzzle document on Page 1.
Example: (Looking at the Muzzle silkscreen aka component location side) find
R7. left hole>
0-----
[ R7 ]-----
0 <right hole
1. Wire
lug 2 from the
B10k potentiometer to the left hole.
2. Wire lug
1 or 3 from same potentiometer the right hole.
*Shift Mod directions:
Follow the same directions for the
R10 location as you did for
R7. Using another b10k potentiometer.
*Notes:
The switch for the Muzzle's range section is still in its location. I did not alter or mod anything in this area. This switch turns on or off the "Range MOD" potentiometer now.
It is going to take time to learn this stuff. I have over 20 pedals or so under my belt and 1 amplifier. So although I know some things, I still have a lot to learn about how these components function in certain situations.
This mod is in working order but I may be missing something and it might not be working as good as it could or should. I can't emphasize enough to read up on this subject. I was told this early on and didn't want to hear it. I just wanted the quick and easy answer.
The more I learn the more grateful I am. The more I understand the easier it is to troubleshoot problems when putting a pedal together. I have bought a rack unit and a guitar pedal off ebay both broken/as is and was able to fix them!!!
Pedalpcb.com and Freestomboxes.org and Madbeanpedals.com forums have a lot of information but maybe grab a book or two as well to have help in the journey.
Goodluck.
